How about this idea………how about our “supposed” president worry about our deficit and the “chaos” he’s started in Libya and the list goes on, and STOP playing “campaign boy”. Or even better…….just stay “on the road” and give the “power” to someone who knows how to handle it and that will….just sayin’…

First name, last name, first name, last name… will.i.am? Get over yourself, dude. Did he wear the helmet he wore during that abominable halftime show. I hope for the guests’ sake that he wasn’t the entertainment…

Obama is his own government charity. Obama conversation before the event:” Are my pant creases perfect? Are these cuffs even on both sides? Did you get the graying just right on my temples? Is the skin lightener evenly toned? Just enough to be black, but not too black? Nails done? Hey, I can’t see my reflection in my shoes. Do over! Get that shoe boy in here. . And remember, please put the richest women close to me. You know how they love me and I Loooove their money!! Show Time!!

Should we not look into who some of these people are? Anyone recognize any of the names? There was a time when George Soros would have appeared on a list like this made public and someone would have glanced over the name and kept reading!

This may be a good example of watching the other hand, in this case these are the hands that “feed” BHO and expect something in return, these are the types in the shadows we dont hear about! Remember they had $35,800 to shell out for this little get together!!

Could it be fascism in the making, revisited? In which case, the “looking into” will only be done post festum, although the place is unlikely to be Nuremberg.
Also, if this is an ALPHA list, are there BETAs as well? We know that Gammas and Deltas do not count much.

I recognize a few names. The ones that I recognize are good people although I generally dont agree with some of their politics. Its interesting to see the multiple names from the same family. This is a classic way to circumvent campaign finance limits–but everybody does it.

I believe that the Lisa Goldman and Douglas Goldman on the list are from the Lisa Douglas Goldman Fund. I cant be sure as neither is a particularly unique name, but seeing both together ….http://ldgfund.org/about-us/mission/

These dinners happened by the 100s for the 2008 election! Look up Obama’s “Super Bundlers” and you will find all of the rich fat cats names that supported him.
I am glad to see more people paying attention this time at least.
The left has their man. The GOP cannot stop infighting long enough to find the right candidate and do our own Super Bundling, so unless a miracle happens, this will just be a repeat of 2008

I was thinking the same thing. It’s a very unimpressive list, SF society-wise. The party in 2008 was thrown by a very wealthy developer who’s probably feeling the pain, so maybe not so much love. I didn’t see his name on the list. Frankly, very few society folks besides Cissie, (who, by the way is a few sandwiches short of a picnic).

“The left has their man. The GOP cannot stop infighting long enough to find the right candidate and do our own Super Bundling, so unless a miracle happens, this will just be a repeat of 2008.”

Boy, are you ever right on the infighting. There are times when we really do earn the “stupid party” label.

When we do have a candidate, will we actually support him? Or will a percentage of the party start screeching “RINO!” and bail, handing the election to Obama, as some did in 2008?

Remember 2008, you folks who thought John McCain wasn’t “conservative enough?” Remember, you folks who shouted “RINO” back then? How’d that work out for you?

In 2012 we’ll have a candidate. He or she will be the candidate for the Republican party. He or she will run against Barack Obama. He or she will be our only other choice besides Barack Obama.

The libertarian candidate will not get one electoral vote.
The American party candidate will not get one electoral vote.
The Constitution party candidate will not get one electoral vote.
The Whig candidate will not get one electoral vote.
The Reform party candidate will not get one electoral vote.

If Donald Trump wins the nomination I will vote for him. If Sarah Palin gets the nomination I will vote for her. If Mitt Romney gets the nomination I will vote for him. If Harold Snuffy, the second assistant dogcatcher in Leaf Springs, Arkansas, gets the nomination, I will vote for him. Hell, I voted for Bob Dole in 1996.

We can *not* afford four more years of Barack Obama. We have to win this election at any cost. We can’t do it by screeching “RINO!” at any candidate who disagrees with us on a few things, because Obama disagrees with us on many things, and you only have one choice – the R or the D.

animal,i say this repeatedly,and i am a member of a tp group in nyc. it is absolutely imperative in my opinion that the focus of the 2012 elections be on taking the senate. we have the house,a majority of governorships, state legislatures, and states attorney generals plus us, taking the fight to this leviathan.complete this w/the senate ,and we can block leftist judicial appointments,repeal hc,defund regulatory agencies that stifle liberty. the conversation that is being held now by us as to the presidency is distracting us from our true goal, shrinking the size of government. do not forget that we are winning that fight and it is ours to lose.

We cannot afford another 4 years of Obama, but we also cannot afford another 4 years of a RINO. We are heading for a cliff. Slowing down is not the answer. Going the other direction is the answer. If we are going to go off the cliff, I’d rather the other guy were driving, so we cannot be blamed during the cleanup.

Ahhhh…now you’re finally getting it. It’s not socialism, it’s not fascism, it is however the root from which they both have sprung: it’s plain old corporatism – the evergreen political philosophy of the modern administrative state.

“Don’t worry,” Obama told each elitist plutocrat inside. “We’ll make sure that you’ll be paid back many times over by the middle class in tax breaks, bailouts, Fed freshly-printed money, and pork projects. The power alone that we’ll give you will bring a return many times over. That $35,800 is the best investment you ever made!”

The O always schedules an official function so the campaign won’t have to pay the cost of AF1 and the security,yada yada.
Us taxpayers foot the bills of the campaign whether or not we like it.
After all, he will make clear- he won,you didn’t.

It would be enlightening to see how much money these guests contribute to the Democrats. Even more, it would be of interest to see what (if anything) they contribute to the Republicans. Its nice to know who the enemy is. It is even more valuable to know who’s playing both sides against the middle. We, the tax payers, are the middle. Neither political party really gives a damn about us. We’re simply “astro turf.”

I dont understand why so many from the California Jewish community support the Democratic Party, except maybe out of habit.

The strangest thing last year was seeing the support by some in the Jewish community for Proposition 27, which benefited only the Democratic Party, despite itself being a very anti-democratic piece of legislation. Fortunately, California voters soundly defeated it.

He still gave the Proposition 27 effort $2 MILLION, as did a number of well-connected, out-of-state billionaires, including George Soros. There were suspicions that Haim Saban was attempting to protect Congressman Howard Bermans district, which is heavily Latino but doesnt have a Latino majority thanks to careful Gerrymandering. Who did the Gerrymandering last time around? One of the people was Howard Bermans brother, Michael. You can read more about it here.http://soquelbythecreek.blogspot.com/2010/09/proposition-27-revealed.html

Unfortunately there is that sector of Jew that is the typical east coast liberal, self loathing, Israel hating Jew that still would don the FireReTARDent suit and follow him into hell if he told them to. I know a few. It is sickening and sad when you see that. You have to wonder to themselves if they maybe had no relatives or grandparents who where lost in the Holocaust.

Perhaps Barry should has asked the fat cats if they would care to contribute to the federal government…about and beyond their usual tax burden that is…in order to shrink the federal deficit. I’m sure they would be more then willing…lining up in fact…to give Barry and his boys many many millions of more dollars for him to waste. Thanks guys!!!

I recognize Jon Streeter’s name: lawyer, past president of Bar Association of SF. Struck me as a bit of a self-promoting tool the couple times I ran into him at events around town, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he had political ambitions of his own one of these days.

If Barry X wins a 2nd term they are gonna be real suprised when he kills them and takes all their stuff. “Gee, sorry, Comrade. Yeah, well I needed your money to get power, and now you’re of no value to the Revpolution… Look, the gas is really quick. Ya won’t feel a thing.”

I don’t think the money is going to work this time for Barry. He has dug himself a hugh hole. We need to start looking for people of conviction and honor to run for President in 2012. I for one am looking at Rep. Allen West.

Here’s a suggestion. Instead of using the billions of dollars that will be collected by all parties as campaign funds…Have all candidates collecting these billions of dollars donate them to the IRS to pay down the deficit. That will surely get them on every Radio and Television News and Talk Shows where they can pontificate why they should be elected.

At Holy Thursday Mass last evening, the Lord Jesus Christ Himself was really, truly and substantially present in the guise of ordinary bread and common wine. He will have been in San Francisco as well. “Who shall I release? And the crowd yelled, ‘Give us Barrabas’ ” “IHS”

I haven’t bought any Levi’s in 25 years. I am a Wrangler jeans kind of a guy. I hope I never find out Wrangler is owned by big spending and useless collectivists, too. They are already selling baggy jeans, eh?

I think the motivation for some of these people is that it is fashionable to be thought of as “important” and politically active it causes of the “people”. It is something they wear like an expensive pair of shoes to show not only their own wealth but that they are oh so important. This is especially true since most of these people are inherited wealth and have no clue where real wealth comes from in the first place. Let’s remember as we have seen recently all too clearly, the Democratic party is really a cabal of frauds working for the unions and other criminal money launderers such as our “betters” in all forms of crony capitalism/Wall Street et all. You have the movers and shakers from prior generations and then their decendents who inherited more dough than they know how to spend. Any crook from Chicago knows how to snow these clowns.

When you make 100′s of Millions, some make Billions, off of the backs of the taxpayers every year; what’s a messily $35,800 for dinner to keep the gravy train running. The real fat cats Obama and his lackeys in the Media/Press tells us are Republicans are in reality Democrats and Republicans feasting at the Government trough and kickbacks are a cost of doing business; I bet the kickbacks are even tax deductible as an cost of doing business.

One of the benefactors of White House deficit spending and executive order edicts is Facebook. Think of all the millions since 2008 that have lesser jobs or no jobs. More time to spend time on Facebook and the participants soar. Advertisers don’t have to know that the social network site increases are from people with more spare time. I too would contribute the maximum allowable — to every PAC I could hide in.

Ya know, I don’t think I saw one name on that list of the stupid “celebrities” that starred in commercials to promote BHO, such as Ron Howard. Seems to me that the event was merely a gathering of people that want to be a part of a takeover. These are the people we’ll stomp over while taking our country back.

Benoff referred to Obama as “the one to lead us”. Those attending this dinner to raise funds for Obama have been given much and have the opportunity, during their finite time in the world, to accept the path to the Father in Heaven, as told by His Son, Jesus.

I wonder if at that dinner anyone asked The One True Leader, who is Almighty God, to give His Blessing to them and this nation and for peace in this world.

“National Review’s Jonah Goldberg, author of the best-selling Liberal Fascism, urged his readers to also take a careful look at Sklar’s theories. He cites a blog post of mine written a year ago, in which I noted that Sklar believes that Obama will make “central to his presidency” what he calls “proto-statist structures characteristic of fascist politics — that is, ‘social service’ political organizations operating extra-electorally and also capable of electoral engagement,” that will lead to “party-state systems…in which the party is the state.” Thus, he notes that during the campaign, Obama favored armed public service groups that could be used for homeland security, that would tie leadership bureaucracies to him through the unions and groups like ACORN.”

Actually, I feel a little sorry for the staffer doing the check-in. She’ll
get the blame and we’ll never hear of her again. This is one administration that doesn’t like to let ANYONE know anything about what it’s doing, no matter what the public’s right to know. And, the captive media isn’t about to risk offending the Kenyan.

As we head into the coming Presidential election season, lets all stay focused on the truth, no matter what. Barack Hussein Obama and all of his handlers( “Czars” ) are communists. They will always be communists no matter what they say to get Boobily re-elected. And, if Boobily gets re-elected, the great American experiment in self government will be lost forever.

Yeah — the Obama campaign bends the rules by having some of the money go to the DNC. From the first link in the article:

“Yes, “there’s a little bit of sticker shock,” one Dem told us this week. The explanation: $30,800 of that donation will go to the Democratic National Committee, with $5,000 going to the Obama campaign — $2,500 for the primary and $2,500 for the general election.”

It was on another “highly profitable fundraising swing through the San Francisco Bay Area” (2008) when Obama told the assembled wealthy faithful about all those frustrated Western Pennsylvanians who cling to their guns and their religion, aka “the bitter clingers”.

So the wealthy etc. San Franscicans could shake their heads and cluck their tongues in mock sympathy for those sorry people.

I don’t think Barry expected that his condescending observations would ever escape that room.

I’d pay $35,000 to not hear Obama opine, drone, preach, whatever. I’d pay that much if he’d keep his mug off of my tee vee for a week.

I’d pay a million if his small, narrow brain could drop the car/ditch/republican analogies.
